Research award granted for studies on blackberry skin contouring advantages
In the ever-evolving world of cosmetics, Provital has made a significant breakthrough with their innovative product, Sculpup™. This ground-breaking formula, incorporating blackberry extracts, offers a natural and non-aggressive alternative to cosmetic fillers.
- Lipolytic Activity
Sculpup™ harnesses the natural power of blackberry to promote lipid breakdown in the skin, aiding in the reduction of localized fat deposits. This lipolytic effect is crucial for body contouring and sculpting.
- Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Effects
Rich in polyphenols and anthocyanins, blackberry provides strong antioxidant protection. This shields the skin from oxidative stress and inflammation, fostering healthier, firmer skin.
- Stimulation of Matrix Remodeling
The active compounds in blackberry may stimulate the remodeling of the extracellular matrix, improving skin elasticity and firmness—essential factors for achieving a sculpted, toned appearance.
- Improved Microcirculation
Blackberry extract can enhance microcirculation within the skin, promoting better nutrient and oxygen delivery. This supports skin vitality and regeneration during the sculpting process.
Sculpup™ meets contemporary beauty trends in four aspects: inclusive products, volumizers, nature-inspired, and scientifically proven. It supports the extracellular matrix of the dermis, allowing it to adapt better to volume changes, preventing the fibrosis associated with the appearance of cellulite on the thighs and buttocks.
The product leaves the skin looking younger and fuller, opening up many future possibilities in the field of volumizing body care. Provital's research into Sculpup™ was recently recognised at the Ringier Personal Care Product Technology Innovation award ceremony held in Guangzhou, China in July.
The discovery of blackberry's role in adipogenesis (the process that stimulates the maturation of adipocytes, the fat cells that compose adipose tissue) and lipogenesis (the process that supports lipid storage in adipocytes) is particularly relevant in light of current beauty and anti-aging trends, where consumers seek a more robust and natural silhouette.
Adipose tissue plays an important role in skin filling and volume, being more abundant in the lips, cheeks, bust, and buttocks. The blackberry used by Provital in Sculpup™ is organic and has the COSMOS certificate, making it 100% naturally sourced.
In an era where the "size 0" ideal is being replaced by a new appreciation for adipose cells' role in maintaining skin health and youthfulness, Sculpup™ offers a promising solution for those seeking a more sculpted, toned appearance without resorting to invasive procedures.
- The innovative product Sculpup™, developed by Provital, leverages the benefits of blackberry for skin care, particularly its role in stimulating matrix remodeling, which improves skin elasticity and firmness.
- In the health-and-wellness and fitness-and-exercise spheres, blackberry extract aids in enhancing microcirculation within the skin, promoting better nutrient and oxygen delivery, thereby supporting skin vitality and regeneration.
- Scientific research has discovered that blackberry plays a crucial role in adipogenesis and lipogenesis, processes that stimulate the maturation and storage of fat cells. This has significant implications for the cosmetics industry, where womens' health and skin care products are increasingly seeking natural, non-invasive alternatives to cosmetic fillers.
